German term

Zast

German to English Bus/Financial Real Estate
"Wohn. befr. Zast" In a table under the heading "industry". This has to do with a bank and the category to the left of it is "borrower".

Is this Wohnung befristete Zast? What the heck is zast here? If it were the tax, wouldn't it have capital letters "ZASt"?
Proposed translations (English)
4 ZAST (=Zinsabschlagsteuer)= IWT (=interest withholding tax)

They are all originally in English:Marketing unit, country, group / obligor (KNE), Rating, Risk segment 1, add. risk segment, dependency on capital markets, risk category, internal review date due, counterpart exposure in t (euro symbol), loan loss provision in % of outstanding, LLP requirement (+/-) current year, secondary market price offer (%), Entered list (date), left list (date), Risk assessment update, Recommendation for further action.

Whew! That was a mouthful!

ZAST (=Zinsabschlagsteuer)= IWT (=interest withholding tax)

Applies to bank account interest, bond interest, and similar income.
Note from asker:
I have heard of this, but the thing is that the table was referring to things in the U.S. just with some of the descriptions of what the American holdings pertain to in German, so I did not think that a German tax could be relevant to American holdings, or am I wrong?
